This is the stage of the project that you would complete a tutorial and learn how to use the program that will help you create your teaching aid.

Year 11, remember that if you are using PowerPoint 2010 - you must use the advanced features.

1.No typing mistakes - remember that you have control over this.  Turn on the spell check and if in doubt, pull out a dictionary and look the word up to see if it is spelled correctly. http://blogmines.com/blog/2010/10/27/how-to-enable-check-spelling-as-you-type-feature-in-powerpoint-2010/
